Silver Lining.[1]
(Pat's Pick, page 7.)
There's never a day so sunny,
But a little cloud appears;
There's never a life so happy,
But has had its time of tears,
||:Yet the sun shines out the brighter
When the stormy tempest clears: ||
1 Sharp.
There's never a cup so pleasant, But has bitter with the sweet; There's never a path so rugged, But it bears not print of feet, || :And we have a helper promised For the trials we may meet:|| There's never a sun that rises, But we know 'twill set at night; The beautiful tints of morning And the eve are just as bright, || :And the hour that is the sweetest Is between the dark and light: ||
Geography Song. (Air, "King of the Cannibal Islands." Pat's Pick, page 93; Song" Budget page 34.) 2 Flat*. O! have you heard Geography sung? For if you've not it's on my tongue; About the earth in air that's hung, All covered with green little islands.
- ↑ Can be sung to the tune, "Annie Laurie," by repeating the fourth line of each verse. Music in Franklin Square Collection No. 1, page 106.
